We are a family of three in transition. We spent years being frugal and are now at a crossroad. We'd like to retire from our day jobs in two years or less. Our retirement goals are to provide our daughter with the best education she desires; travel; and find new careers - perhaps part-time that we really enjoy. I hope to post both "frugal" and "personal finance" information. NOTE: I am not a professional on either subject. My posts are purely entertainment :)

11/8 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the day: I donated blood and am home early. Freebies from the blood donation, a t-shirt, bottled h20, crackers and a couple of BOGO restaurant coupons. Then a health fair was going one in conjunction with the blood drive - so, I received a reusable shopping bag, eye glasses repair kit, toothbrush, and a couple of other goodies. Now that I am home - I have big batch of free tilapia I plan to bake with herbs/tangerines, etc. that I already have on hand - and of course, I have a small bag of sweet potatoes to bake wih the fish. The heat will be nice since it is a cold day. I plan to do some light housekeeping. I have a very long "weekend" ahead of me since I am "off" anyway tomorrow and Monday is Veterans Day. Tomorrow, we are planning to redecorate my daughter's bedroom with things we already have - mainly things we have decided not to use in the condo.
